Meet Kaylee George!
My daughter Kaylee (BIOS ‘20) has had an amazing experience at UIC so far. She has volunteered this past year at the Field Museum and the Notebaert Museum with hours in the triple digits. This summer she is an intern with the Naperville Police Department in the Animal Control division. She is one excited biology major! Thank you for all you have done to further ignite her passion and afford her three volunteer positions where I am confident the UIC connection mattered. She is UIC proud and we are very proud of her!
